Officials arrested 55-year-old Juan Ortiz Monday night after his live-in girlfriend told investigators Ortiz became irate after seeing her talking to a neighbor with whom he suspected she was having an affair.

"This neighbor was fighting with his wife, I heard them arguing," said the 911 caller. "I walked outside to get in my truck to get my phone charger and he started threatening me like he wanted to fight or something. He was like, 'jump my fence,' and I was like 'I ain't got to jump your fence.' And he grabbed a machete from behind the fence, jumped the fence and chased me around my vehicle. And I come in the house and called 911. He's walking around right now with a machete."

Ortiz is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. His bond is set at $3,000.
